Hi Friends !

I am new In Android. I have developed an application related to Client -Socket Connection (TCP);

Server ------------ My PC (Desktop)

Client ------------ HTC Desire HD --- Android

Both Server & Client are in same Network, Ping is successfully between Them.

Server Is running well , But communication for Client -Server is not running well.

------------------------------- SERVER CODING --------------


Java
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.net.ServerSocket;
import java.net.Socket;



public class TCPDesktopServer implements Runnable{

    public static final String SERVERIP = "127.0.0.1"; // My system's IP Address
    public static final int SERVERPORT = 8080;

    public void run() {
         try {
        	 System.out.println("S: Connecting...");
             ServerSocket serverSocket = new ServerSocket(SERVERPORT);
             while (true) {      	 
            	 Socket client = serverSocket.accept();
            	 System.out.println("S: Receiving...");

            	 try {

                      BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(client.getInputStream()));
                      String str = in.readLine();
                      System.out.println("S: Received: '" + str + "'");
                    
            	 } catch(Exception e) {
                        System.out.println("S: Error");
                        e.printStackTrace();
                    
            	 } finally {
                    	client.close();
                        System.out.println("S: Done.");
                    }
             }       
         } catch (Exception e) {
             System.out.println("S: Error");
             e.printStackTrace();
         }
    }

    public static void main (String a[]) {

    	Thread desktopServerThread = new Thread(new TCPDesktopServer());
    	desktopServerThread.start();
    }
}

             } catch(Exception e) {
                 Log.e("TCP", "S: Error", e);

		     } finally {
		        socket.close();
		      }

         } catch (Exception e) {
              Log.e("TCP", "C: Error", e);
         }
    }
}

Both your server and client are using the loopback address 127.0.0.1 which means they are communicating with themselves rather than each other. Your client should be calling the IP address of the server, and the server should be binding to address "any" to accept connections on any interface.

Also, you have to grand permission for the App to access internet, by adding the code in AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" xmlns:android="#unknown" />
